Matthew 20:1-16:
Chapter 19 of Matthew’s Gospel ends with the saying about the “first and the last” and Chapter 20 begins with the same. The parable illustrates why this saying is important. Jesus is teaching about God’s justice and generosity to the Jewish and gentile people alike so that all will accept and live following God’s will.
Today we pray for all who are employers to be fair and just in their dealing with those who work for and with them.
